Posted by: Gadget Boy in Gadget News, Technology on January 2nd, 2010
With CES only a week away, photos and incomplete specs for 8 new machines from HP have leaked, including an upgraded Mini 210 HD netbook, now touting a N450 Pine Trail processor.
The HP Mini 210 HD, to be officially announced next week, boasts a 1.66GHz N450 Atom CPU and GMA 3150 graphics. The N450 is half as small as and nearly 20% more efficient than its predecessor. The HD designation will likely come courtesy of Broadcom's Crystal HD video chip.
The netbook will be available in Sonoma Red, Solid Black, Silver Crystal or Pacific Blue and is expected to ship for $330 next week after its official announcement at CES. [Logic Buy via Engadget]

Posted by: Gadget Boy in Gadget News, Technology on December 30th, 2009
Having only recently marked its return to the handheld computing space with the iPAQ Glisten, HP seems intent on forging ahead with more hardware in the coming year. The above trademark applications — filed in September and October 2009 — mark out some very broad categories, but we can narrow them down a little with the help of some context. Given all the industry excitement over tablet devices, the Zeen could well be the name of a forthcoming slate-shaped machine and accompanying software, while Airlife seems to be planted firmly in the smartphone arena. The moniker suggests a software ecosystem rather than actual hardware, but that would make little sense with just one handset out there; if we were the betting type (and believe us, we aren’t), we’d probably expect to see more mobiles coming from the computing giant in order to take advantage. Of course, companies don’t always follow through on trademark applications, but it sure seems as if HP is casting a wary eye over the burgeoning handheld market (and / or planning to not get left behind in the months ahead).

HP 210 netbook forgets announcement in lieu of support pages, retail listings
Posted by: Gadget Boy in Gadget News, Technology on December 30th, 2009
Uh oh, looks like HP has confused its product release order of operations. Without even a hint of an official announcement, the HP 210 netbook has appeared in two quadrants of the internet: retail and troubleshooting. The former is eCost, which claims the 10.1-inch matte black portable is in stock for $390 and touts a 1.66GHz Intel Atom N450 (yep, that's Pine Trail), integrated graphics, 1GB RAM, 250GB HDD, and a 6-cell battery. As for the latter, we need look no further than HP's own support pages -- similar to what happened with the Mini 311 back in September. So will we get an eye-full before CES or will we have to wait for the big show?

Posted by: Gadget Boy in Gadget News, Technology on December 30th, 2009
"This is my Zeen. It is the key to my Airlife." These mysterious sentences are part of Hewlett-Packard's latest trademark filing and they cover "mobile computing devices and wireless lifestyles." Could this be a hint of possible tablet development?
Let's consider this: The Zeen name covers:
portable handheld device for receiving and displaying text and images and sound; computer software for use in transmitting and displaying text, images and sound; computer peripherals; computer hardware.
And the Airlife trademark is intended for:
handheld computers; personal digital assistants; mobile telephones; computers; computer hardware; computer software; computer peripherals
So, it sounds like we'd basically be looking at a mobile computing device of some kind and a corresponding service.
While trademark filings aren't exactly always a reason to get excited, the NYT does point out that "it's unusual for H.P. to make a pair of filings within five weeks of each other that place such emphasis on handheld devices." Still, this is not much to go from, but if one were to speculate about what HP could be planning, it seems like it's either a smartphone or, more likely, some sort of tablet device.
Here's hoping that Apple gets competition. [NY Times]

HP Envy 14, Envy 17, and new EliteBooks leak onto the scene
Posted by: Gadget Boy in Gadget News, Technology on December 28th, 2009
The tap that keeps on leaking has inadvertently let loose an internal "notebook index" document that corroborates earlier rumblings of a forthcoming Envy 14. Sourced from HP's Korean site, this little ditty reveals Envy 14 and Envy 17 models, which both tick the 'HP external USB DVD Drive' category, bringing up the intriguing possibility of a 17-inch laptop without an integrated optical drive. The bigger machine is also listed alongside "new" 6- and 9-cell battery packs, but other internal specs remain unknown. In other news, successors to the Elitebook 2730p tablet, 2530p ultraportable and 8730w desktop replacement have been spotted, with 16:9 display ratios on the smaller machines and 16:10 on the 17-inch workstation. Hit the read link for more details, and keep it locked to the Engadget channel when CES hits in a few days' time, when a lot of these sketchy leaks will be replaced by exhaustive spec sheets and full-color, in-the-metal photography.

Posted by: Gadget Boy in Gadget News, Technology on December 22nd, 2009
Remember that Mini 210 mentioned in HP’s leak from a few months back? Looks like it’s on the comeback as the Pine Trail-powered replacement for the Mini 110 (noticing a trend here?). Logichp has some fancy press pics, and additionally, online retailer eCost lists the little guy for $321 and claims 1GB of RAM, 160GB to 250GB HDD, 802.11b/g/n, card reader, and Windows 7 Starter Edition, a.k.a. the new norm for netbooks.
[Thanks, Tim]
